Understanding Gynecomastia: Causes, Symptoms & When to Consider Surgery with Dr. Shivam Dang

1

Gynecomastia, or enlargement of male chest tissue, is a condition that affects many men—both physically and emotionally. At Dr. Dang’s Clinic in Dehradun, Dr. Shivam Dang provides expert care and modern surgical solutions to help patients regain confidence and comfort in their appearance.

🔍 What Is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia is the benign (non-cancerous) enlargement of male chest tissue due to hormonal imbalances, genetics, medications, or lifestyle factors. It can affect one or both sides of the chest and often leads to emotional distress, low self-esteem, and body image concerns.


💡 Common Causes of Gynecomastia

  1. Hormonal Imbalance
    • Increase in estrogen or decrease in testosterone levels.
  2. Puberty
    • Hormonal fluctuations during adolescence can trigger temporary gynecomastia.
  3. Medications
    • Steroids, anti-anxiety drugs, and some antibiotics may contribute.
  4. Health Conditions
    • Liver disease, thyroid issues, or obesity may influence hormone levels.
  5. Lifestyle
    • Alcohol, drug use, or anabolic steroid abuse can also play a role.

🩺 Symptoms of Gynecomastia

  • Swollen male chest tissue
  • Tenderness or discomfort in the chest
  • Feeling of fullness or rubbery mass behind the nipple
  • Asymmetry between the two sides of the chest

Note: If there’s sudden pain, discharge, or a hard lump, it’s important to consult a doctor to rule out other concerns.


🕒 When Should You Consider Surgery?

Surgery for gynecomastia may be the right option when:

  • The condition has persisted beyond adolescence.
  • It causes physical discomfort or emotional distress.
  • Diet and exercise have not improved the condition.
  • You want a flatter, more masculine chest contour.
